I could say it's the same as the distance covered divided by the time to cover it,

in the direction from the starting point to the end point.

When average velocity and average speed is equal?

For the instantaneous value of average velocity, average speed and average velocity are equal.


Can the average velocity of a particle be zero but not its average speed?

Yes, since velocity is speed and direction its average can be zero. For example say a plane flies from point A to point B at 300 mph and turns around to go from B to A at 300 mph; its average velocity is 0 since it is in the same spot as it started ( the velocity vectors cancel) but its average speed is 300 mph.


How is velocity different from average speeed?

Velocity is speed and its direction. Average velocity is average speed and its direction.


When is the average velocity equal to average of velocity for an object?

Always.


An object has initial velocity in the upward direction a final velocity in the downward direction and undergoes constant acceleration What can you say about its average acceleration?

The average acceleration of the object will be negative since it changes direction from upward to downward velocity. The acceleration will be constant because the object undergoes constant acceleration throughout the motion.


Does average velocity and average speed have the same number?

velocity is a vector and speed is scalar. Velocity has magnitude and directions, with magnitude being speed. The magnitude of average velocity and average speed is the same.


What is the best definition of velocity?

The speed of something in a given direction.


Equation for calculating average velocity from displacement and time interval?

Average velocity can be calculated by dividing the displacement (change in position) by the time interval. The formula for average velocity is average velocity = (final position - initial position) / time interval.


What is the relationship between average velocity and instantaneous velocity?

The average velocity over an time interval is the average of the instantaneous velocities for all instants over that period. Conversely, as the time interval is reduced, the average velocity comes closer and closer to the instantaneous velocity.


What is average velocity's definition?

Average Velocity is displacement over total time.


What is the magnitude of velocity?

what is magnitude of average velocity


What is instantaneous velocity of a body in terms of its average velocity?

The instantaneous velocity of a body represents its velocity at a particular instant in time, while the average velocity is calculated over a certain time interval. To find the instantaneous velocity from the average velocity, you can take the limit as the time interval approaches zero in the average velocity calculation. Mathematically, this can be represented as the derivative of the position function with respect to time.
